I've heard of traceroute, but never needed to use it; though I think I have a general understanding of it's purpose. I'd be curious to know what exactly you're looking for in traceroute.

To get the definitive proof that your 2 VPSs are indeed on the same node. You can obfuscate any IP that may be too revealing...

Ok! I just saw the traceroute result bellow. As expected, 1 hop to your datacenter external router (its LA-based) then back again to their internal IPs.

Racknerd advertised these as having NVME disk and ECC DDR4 RAM. I don't know how to verify that from terminal, but given the performance I don't doubt it.

I still never had a VPS with an NVMe-based SSD storage so I can only point to benchmarking as the best way to assess for its presence (generally in the order of Gigabyte speed.) See this thread where we discussed a bit about this disk speed issue. By the way, Your fio disk test kind of confirms it is an NVMe-backed storage.

Also, you may want to run the 'lsblk' command to see if the nvme prefix is present, although I doubt it may show up in a VPS environment (but it will if it was on your PC.)

How's "Server1 sql + webmin" doing RAM-wise?.. I would guess that swapping has already kicked in?.. But it should help to have that NVMe-based SSD storage :-)

On the other-hand do you really need webmin or is just consuming resources --especially RAM in this case-- for things that can be done at the command-line ?

Last point, how are you monitoring your systems?
